This three-gun turret (more properly called a "gunhouse") represents the enormous main battery of Iowa-class battleships USS Iowa BB-61, USS New Jersey BB-62, USS Missouri BB-63, USS Wisconsin BB-64 and the incomplete USS Kentucky BB-65 and USS Illinois BB-66.
 
Features:
Dimensions scaled from scans of original builder's blueprints and confirmed by measurements taken from an actual gunhouse on one of the real ships.
Barrels are integrated with a trunnion permitting the modeler to set the barrels to any realistic elevation from +45 degrees to -2 degrees, just like the real turrets.  Blast bags are not included.
Open armored rangefinder viewport shutters.
Rangefinders with telescopic sights visible through the open shutters of the armored covers.
Armored rangefinder hex-head bolt and domed screw details.
Detailed rooftop periscopes.
Asymmetrical underside ventilation trunks (as-built 1943-1945 configuration).
Detailed turret-bottom crew access hatches.
Turret roof plate screws, properly numbered, sized and located.
